That's a tough question, and the answer depends on whom you ask. Generally, we consider bardic:
1) to be related to the SCA itself, or the SCA "period" (before AD 1600, usually in Europe);
2) to have something to do with story, poetry, or music;
3) to be intended to entertain, or convey information through entertainment
Examples might be a story about Loki, a troubadour-style poem, or a song about Artemesian Duke So-and-so forgetting his pants.
Introduction of Group:
The Bardic College of Calontir is a largely-informal guild of Calontiri bards and interested others. Members might perform, research, create, promote... but every one of us enjoys the bardic arts.
